✨ about my channel
I will be sharing the ups and downs of life and how to attempt to get through it in one piece. I’ll be sharing realistic life advice, minimalism tips, routines, vlogs, and anything else I think you would benefit from! Life is messy and unpredictable, and learning how to manage these hurdles is the first step to leading a happier and more intentional life. We're all trying our best out here, and I just want to share what is and isn't working for me.
Sending you all my love,
Grace

I enjoy your channel and your neurotic chatty videos! One piece of advice I'd like to give - please ignore if it's useless - is that you can perhaps relax a little! You don't need to perfect solution for your books, or the perfect set of shoes fit for every occasion. You can wait for clarity on these things. You're doing really, really well. :)
thank you!! I think sometimes talking it out is helpful, and I can definitely be a little impatient sometimes when it comes to a solution haha
When you’re putting things away that don’t really have a home, ask yourself “where would I look for this first?” And don’t overthink it. Take it there now, and if there’s not space for it where you would look first, declutter low-priority things until it fits
You must be a Dana fan! Love her too!
@@SarahCbyneedleandthread tyhb changed my whole life
I use your videos for body doubling. It helps me so much! Today was folding and putting away laundry as well as some decluttering.
I'm so glad!!
I’ve made a really conscious effort to try to store almost everything behind a closed door (cabinet/drawer/whatever). So the only thing on my dresser is my alarm clock. I store my deodorant in my underwear drawer and all other “decorations” I had actually were just clutter that I A. Spread around the house or B. Decluttered. Now everything looks so clean and simple.
this is my next goal tbh!! been working up to it slowly.....
I was watching while I was cross stitching. Loved hearing your thoughts about the books! Wish You Were Here was very good!❤
Ive been saving this video to watch while i am decluttering clothes. Its been a heck of summer business wise so im just not hetting aroind to watching/decluttering. Thanks for making these vids to help us get through the slog! ❤
im so happy to have discovered your channel! seeing a fellow adhd girlie doing her best makes me feel more capable too
🥰
Good Grief is a really beautiful book. I’m a sucker for any book about a person starting over and sort of rising from the ashes.
ohh thanks for the confirmation! I'd never seen or heard anyone else reading this book
I might have a shoe fix for you because I feel the same way ”well what if I need a pair for this occasion”. Pack up all the shoes you feel less than 95% certain on, put the box out of sight, then see how often you really need the shoes. I did it with clothes a few months ago and just remembered today they’re upstairs in the attic and now I’m going to donate them because I never thought of it once.
I'm fairly certain I'm ready to part with another pair or two even after filming this tbh!! but that's a GREAT way of decluttering for people who are nervous to commit at first! (also smart in case you actually do need that one particular shoe lol)
Thrift a sundress. Make an addendum to your no buy.
But make sure whatever you buy is something you want to wear right now today.
yes I may have to do a bit of shifting around for my rules...
@@gracenevitt we’re almost 6 months in. We should probably revisit the rules anyway and reassess the needs
Maybe you already know this but you can also take out books from the library and have them delivered to your Kindle. Newer books will have a longer wait list but I just keep a queue.
I do that for nearly every book I read!! hehe
I'm moving in a few weeks and desperately need to declutter some stuff before the move. Thanks for the inspiration!
you got this!!!
Thanks for the hang 😊 I’m having a break from a massive batch cooking day (I do not enjoy cooking, lol!), so it was lovely to listen to you potter around getting things done and chatting away 😁
Flip booping the camera was the best 🥹🥰
I didn't expect him to do it either LOL it's definitely the best part of the video
The high ponytail fits you so well :)
thank you!! it's been a staple hairstyle of mine FOREVER and I can finally put it up again after cutting my hair super short haha
I was literally talking to my husband last night about switching to Mint. This is my sign to continue
I've loved it so far and soo many other community members who already use it have said the same!! (don't forget to use my link if you end up switching so you can help out me and the channel hehe)
Love me a good declutter! So looking forward to more book vlogs 😍 p.s. There's a movie for My Sister's Keeper that is pretty well done! (I haven't read the book though, so I don't know how they compare)
I cannot WAIT to do more book vlogs!! feeling very inspired to do them right now. definitely moving towards my booktuber era hehehe
Hey Grace! I'm always happy to work alongside you when you have one of those rambly chores/declutter videos out! I have one suggestion regarding editing that would make the viewing/listening experience better for me: in order to understand what you say when I don't look at my screen (which is often because I'm doing dishes while you are), I have to turn the volume up pretty loud. That's fine but it means that the music bits are then a bit too loud. I would love it if you could consider making those bits lower volume ❤️ Also in this type of video specifically, I always miss your onscreen text because I don't look at the screen 😅 but that's fine I guess it can't be helped. Thanks for reading and also thanks for the discord, I feel like I have gained a whole new friend group there!
ah man I feel like this is a comment/concern that comes up a bit and I literally have no clue why it's still happening!!! I swear I'm leveling the audio with the little sound bars on the side of my editing software and trying to make sure it's balanced. it sounds fine in my headphones and shows up as being about the same levels on the sound bars on the side so I don't really know what to do anymore 😭 I just need to make the music literally basically muted I guess
@@gracenevitt my guess is that it actually indeed is the same level as your voice, and with a better sound quality (such as your headphones) it's fine, but with worse sound quality (such as my phone speakers) I need to turn up the volume in order to make out speech because of the exact wavelengths and also because I need to not only hear but also understand you 😅 but then the music is more different wavelengths mashed together and becomes much more 'noisy' on my phone speakers, because it's mashed together. So I suppose in order for it to work on bad quality speakers the music needs to be half or even a quarter as loud as the speech... Which will then probably feel a bit weird on your headphones. Idk if this makes you feel better, but I have very similar issues with professionally mixed television (where the issue seems to be with the signal because I do have very good sound quality there) so making speech intelligible while also having (background) music is just really tricky. Good luck with it!
I always love these videos cause it gives me energy and motivation to also tidy my house ❤ Lots of love ! (And also, don't feel too bad ab the wardrobe ! As a girlie who also lives in a very distinct four season climate I need at least three seasonal wardrobes of clothes to survive and sometimes I just wanna look cute. There's nothing wrong with already owning clothes as long you actually like them 🤍)
We just finished 'Wish you were here' for bookclub - well worth a read but yes is very Covid heavy.
thanks for the confirmation! I definitely want to read it but will likely let it sit a little longer haha
I really loved the audiobook version!
Jodi Picoult My sisters keeper - is my one of the favourites movies :) I did not read the book, but I liked the movie a lot. Sooo I recommend to read it or watch a movie :)
Nooo my sisters keeper is so good
I might still read it! Just probably will borrow it from the library if I ever feel the desire
Keep it up Grace!
My sisters keeper was my favorite book in high school. The movie and the book have different endings 🙃 (i dont like when they do that) but without giving too much away, essentially, the sister that is a "match" was purposely had to be a perfect match to her sister. I even wrote my senior science paper on "designer babies" because of this book. But anyways i loved it,i think both the movie and the book are good, per usual, the book goes into more details for a lot of the side characters, which made me like them more. Maybe give it a chance on your kindle.
fair enough!! that raises a totally different side of intrigue for the book for me bc woah!! I definitely might give it a chance on my kindle :)
Maybe you can watch the movie My Sister's Keeper and decide from there if it is worth reading the book. Not sure how similar they are, but I have seen the movie.
Not similar, don’t judge the book by the movie!
I'm sitting on the train on my way home after university. Just had an iced chocolate. It's a yellow purchase, but I do to many of them the last wees, because I feel like shit mentally and feel like treating myself 😭😭😭
it happens!! I feel like I lost the plot a bit this month too (a ton of yellow light purchases). ebbs and flows are natural in this process. sending you love!! hope you feel mentally better soon
Yay! Mint mobile! Which is your favorite Jane Austen book? I've only read pride and prejudice when I was 14 and wasn't a fan. But I want to try another!
I'm working my way through! so far I've read pride + prejudice and emma. they were both pretty good in my opinion, although emma felt a little drawn out. I hope to read northanger abbey and maybe persuasion this year!
I have probably 95% fast fashion in my wardrobe. I also have probably 50% of my wardrobe being from over 5 years ago. Making fast fashion slow fashion is my unintentional thing because I simply don't find much joy in buying clothing.
that's the best way to consume fast fashion if you're gonna do it at all!
I am also decluttering books I probably not going to read. I just have too much books.
it feels AMAZING to have only books on your shelf that you're actually excited about reading!
Out feet are the same size and I'm 5'0" heh
LOL this is what I'm saying!!!
